What is the maximum hardening that a deck can support under 3rd ed? I havn't been able to find one either in the Core rules or in the Matrix book
Thanks |

In 2ed, I thikn it was your MPCP/3. In 3rd ed, I 've had a pretty hard time finding it myself. I think I remember it being 5 as well, but I haven't been able to find any rules for requirements as far as other deck componets (as in 2nd ed).
I play it as being max5, but still have the max also limited by your mpcp. Hardening isn't all that expensive. If you can have a deck w/ MPCP8, and 5 hardening..... well that's just no fun for the GM. |

Stock Fairlight Excalibur has a 6. This indicates to me that the maximum is more than that

Maybe Fairlight uses a patented process not available to the public. :D |

Which is one of the advantages that Deckers have over Otaku, they can really pump the Hardening up high.

Eh? You know an Otaku PC with less than 6 Willpower? Or that his Willpower Attribute Max was less than 12? |

yeah, but that means that an otaku's hardening caps at 6 (not counting echoes, which are too expensive to waste on that), whereas a decker's caps at MPCP.

An otaku's Hardening caps at Willpower. Most otakus I've seen has 9-10 Willpower.
